Waiting? Inventory? Motion? This is like a game of Tetris, figuring out which piece fits best! I'm just going to throw a dart and hope for the best.

Oh man, this one's tricky. I'm going to go with B) Motion. The resource is constantly moving through the queue, so the waste is in the motion, right?

I see your point, but I still think it's B) Motion. The constant movement of the resource through the queue is where the waste lies.

I disagree, I believe it's C) Inventory. Having the resource sit in the queue adds unnecessary inventory, which is wasteful.

I think the correct answer is A) Waiting. The resource being in the queue is just waiting to be processed, so that's where the waste is.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards D) Correction. If the resource is in the queue, it's probably because there was some mistake or error that needs to be corrected.

I think it's actually A) Waiting. The resource is just sitting there, not being used.

I'm pretty sure it's C) Inventory. The resource being in the queue is like having it in inventory, taking up space and resources.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be C) Inventory, because having resources waiting in a queue can lead to excess inventory.

I agree with Hannah, because when a resource is in the queue, it's not being used efficiently.
